Delaying The a

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-It is not GER
tain after all that the members of the
house will be able to sscure a bill day be-
fore the recess, as they had expected.
There is objection on the part of those
who control the affairs of the house to
having a bill day until after the report of
the committee on rules shall be adopted.
The time for the adjournment having
been fixed for Wednesday, there may
not be time enough left before Wednes-
day night for the introduction of bills.
Speaker Carlisle, who was specifically
inquired of as to the probability OF a bill
day before the recess, said he could
only give his individual opinion, which
was that there is a resolution pending in
the house for a bill day which has a strong
support, but it was Mr.. Carlisle's individ-
ual opinion that the resolution would not
be acted upon, or at least would not be
adopted, and hat there will be no bill day
until after New Years.

Struck by a Cyclone.

LITTLE Rock, Dec. IA special from
Polk county reports that a destructive
cyclone visited Armstrong academy, |. t.,
Fort Washita and Green at an early hour
Saturday morning, causing great destruc-
ton to property and loss of life. About
5 o'clock a terrific rumbling sound was
heard and a heavy black cloud, funnel
shaped, was seen in the distance rapidly
approaching. When about a mile north
of the fort it struck the ground, and from
this point south for miles the work of
ruin continued. The cyclone travelled at
about the rate of a mile a minute. The
instant from the time it struck the earth
half the houses in the fort were in ruins.
Light houses were picked up and made
into kindling wood by the fury of the
wind. Armstrong academy was not
greatly injured, but ranches in the imme-
date neighborhood suffered greatly. At
Green, n little hamlet six miles south OF
Armstrong, the damage was very heavy
and many persons were injured. Seven
teen houses and a general store were car
ried away bodily, while horses and cattle
within the territory covered by the storm
were killed or injured. The damage at
this time cannot be estimated, as the full
extent of the storm is unknown. Five
deaths are reported. 49,

Fight In Detail.

LONDON, Dec. l9.-Following issa de-
tailed account of the fight by rounds:
The men had no sooner faced each
other than Kilrain led off with his left
and landed lightly on the head. Smith
countered yiciously with his left in tie
region OF the stomach, but Kilrain nobly
stopped the intended blow and returned a
useful tap on the same part of Smiths
anatomy. Both men now spared eau
tiously, but soon closed and fell, Kilrain
going underneath.
Round e-As soon as tho men came
together, the American dashed out with
his left, but was c~leverly stopped by
Smith, who sent in his left sharply on the
body, and the pair closed and wrestled for
a fall, which again resulted in favor of the
Englishman.
Round 3-The English party were now
iubilant, as their man came in smiling.
Kilrain, however, again
FORCED THE FIGHTING,
but Jem c~leverly lodged out of the way.
Smith now popped in his left, and they
again closed. After some severe fighting
in his own corner, the Englishman got
his man down.
Round The pair responded quickly
to the call of time, each wearing a look OF
logged determination. kilrain was the
first to hostilities, letting fly
his left, which landed heavily on Smiths
head, but in return he was the recipient
of a redhot one in the right eye, Smith
getting his left fairly home with such
force that Kilrain's optic soon showed
SIGNS OF CLOSING. "
Neither appeared to care for the attention
given to each other, the result being that
both fought with a great deal of dash,
Some heavy oountering followed. During
this the American landed a terrific right
handler on Smiths left ear, which mar
rowly escaped giving the Englishman his
coup de grace. 1t so staggered Smith
that he had great difficulty in keeping up
